    I can tell you what you can get with 20 mil.
    Mike Finley 21.7
    Shaq 20 mil
    marbury 20mil
    Jermain oneal 20 mil
    webber 19.5 mil
    Tmac 19 mil ~
    francis 16.5 mil ~
    Ben Wallace 15.5 mil
    Red 15 mil~
    elton bran 15.3 mil

    Yeah he's overpaid but who on that list isnt? And here's the list of players I think Tmac is equal to or greater then

    Iverson 20mil
    Kidd - 19.7 mil
    shawn Marion 16.5 mil
    Ray allen 16mil


    Tmac isn't that overpaid if you compared him with the stars in the league.

    i think what they meant is tmac's injuries are preventing him from being on the floor every game. he gets paid 20 mil to help this team win EVERY game as best as he can. he has missed a lot of games so he is overpaid. i don't mind fans criticizing him for that.

    Many players on the list missed a lot of games. Also Tmac has played close to 70 + games for many season now with just 1 season where he was around 50 games. Lingering injuries are part of the game.

    Oh, I think T-Mac could play much, much better than he has been. His big problem is absolutely atrocious shot selection. That's a mental thing. He cleans that up and passes instead of shoots the contested jumper and the Rockets could see a huge improvement right there.

    As for a trade, I could think of a few that I think would improve the team--assuming T-Mac doesn't change up his game. That's the question. T-Mac/Yao hasn't been too successful in the past. How about T-Mac/Yao/Adelman? FWIW I don't think T-Mac's going anywhere before the end of the season.

    And of course if they win a championship he's not going anywhere. :D

    great players ALWAYS have bad shot selection. yao has bad shot selection too--why the hell would you resort to fallaways/fadeaways... when you're the best center in the L?

    kobe takes his share. same w/ melo, iverson... it's not just tracy.

    i think all of tracy's problems that frustrate fans are his injuries and his losing record. if he's healthy and he's playing, i don't think people can complain much about his play.

    Oh, come on. Do you actually believe that bit about the poor shot selection?
